Cloud Security Engineer (X-CSE) is designed for learners who need practical, job-ready capability in securing cloud environments. You will focus on the controls that most directly reduce risk in modern cloud estates: identity hardening, high-signal logging, secure-by-design patterns, and preventing common misconfiguration failures. Cloud security best practice places strong emphasis on identity, least privilege, and secure configuration patterns because these are frequent attack paths.
Delivered through mentor-led sessions, you will work through practical scenarios that mirror real engineering and operations work: tightening IAM access safely, improving log coverage and retention, assessing misconfiguration risk, and building secure patterns that teams can adopt. Guidance is grounded in widely used cloud security best practices such as least-privilege IAM and well-architected security principles.
Across four intensive days, you will build a practical cloud security blueprint and produce engineering-ready deliverables, including an IAM hardening plan, a logging and detection checklist, secure pattern templates, and an incident readiness pack. The incident readiness approach follows established incident handling guidance, with clear roles, communication, and evidence discipline. Aligned with recognised best practices including ISO, GDPR, NIST and SOC 2, ensuring skills remain practical and deployable in real organisations. All prices are exclusive of VAT (where applicable). Group enrolments and custom packages available.
Practical hardening workshops, logging design exercises, and scenario simulations producing usable engineering templates.

Credential
On successful completion of Cloud Security Engineer (X-CSE), learners receive an Xcademia Certificate of Completion. This standalone certificate is issued directly by Xcademia and is aligned with globally recognised frameworks and best practices.
Everything you need to know about the certification exams
You will receive an Xcademia Certificate of Achievement based on strong performance across scenario simulations and the quality of your security blueprint deliverables.
Everything you need to know about this course
No. The programme teaches vendor-neutral engineering principles and patterns. Examples may reference common cloud concepts, but the deliverables are designed to transfer across platforms.
